Question

A shop sells 2 brands of sunflower seeds. Brand A's package is in the shape of a cone with radius 2.5 centimeters and height 10 centimeters. Brand B's package is in the shape of a square prism. The prism's height is 2.5 centimeters, and each side of the base measures 5 centimeters.

Which package contains more seeds? Explain it show your reasoning.​

Answer 1

The square prism would contain more seed than the cone because it has a larger volume.

Volume

Volume is the amount of space occupied by a three dimensional shape or object.

The volume of cone = (1/3) * π * radius² * height = (1/3) * π * 2.5² * 10 = 65.45 cm³

The volume of square prism =  base² * height = 5² * 2.5 = 62.5 cm³

The square prism would contain more seed than the cone because it has a larger volume.
